The incompatibility lies with it being unenforceable at scale even if illegal. Religious blasphemy is not legal in many countries. Sharing pirated content is not legal in many countries, but we all are on the same internet. Trying to lock up millions of people anonymously sharing data globally that is not even universally illegal is an absurd enforcement problem.
At some point enforcement becomes impossible without killing access to a free anonymous internet entirely.

- lrvick 3y agoChild porn is a couple clicks away for anyone with internet access. Any teen boy that wants to see pictures of similarly aged girls, finds them quickly. Remember that such pictures, no matter how gross, are legal in many countries who share the internet with us. I am not saying that is okay, but I am saying it is impossible to stop without shutting down the internet. If anything deepfake tech reduces the demand to abuse real humans to obtain some types of pictures, which might reduce harm, even if in gross way. Also you can find copyright movies too just as easily no matter how many billions have been spent trying to stop it.
